Though her shoes couldn’t be seen behind the podium, the first daughter oftentimes favors pumps from brands like Gianvito Rossi, Jimmy Choo and Burberry, teamed with designs from the likes of Brandon Maxwell and Altuzarra. She also has stepped out in more affordable picks from Rothy’s flats and Gola for J.Crew sneakers.

Last week, Ivanka showed her chic shoe style as she joined officials at the White House for a signing ceremony for the “The Great American Outdoors Act.” The act is set to provide approximately $3 billion annually to fund environmental conservation projects as well as reparation and maintenance for national parks amongst other outdoor recreation initiatives.

For the event surrounding President Donald Trump’s signing of the act, his eldest daughter opted for a floral midi-length dress with long, ruffled sleeves. The colorful dress comes from designer Andrew Gn’s pre-fall ’18 collection; the advisor to the president previously chose the silhouette for a summit in June 2019.

The former footwear designer matched the dress to a pair of metallic sandals; the towering stiletto pair featured a double-strap design and a sleek gold finish across its round-toe form.

When it comes to fashion and apparel, Ivanka typically favors major labels like Brandon Maxwell, Chanel, Dolce & Gabbana and Oscar de la Renta. She includes a few more wallet-friend picks in her rotation such as Kenneth Cole and Tommy Hilfiger x Zendaya, too.
